What your family’s values are, and what
your family stands for is its legacy.
Now the question becomes – how does
this relate to the family business?

3. It may be an opportune time to consider
turning your business’ good fortune into a
family tradition that nurtures each generation
and develops a positive vision for the family
that goes beyond your family legacy.
You can do this by taking stock of what has
made you so successful. You will likely find
that your success – or your legacy --- is
sourced in your values, and your family’s
values.
